Nik talks with students at the Google booth

Recently I returned from helping represent Google at the
DataTjej conference in Umeå, Sweden. A national conference for female students studying IT, DataTjej has been an annual event for the last 15 years, with lectures, workshops, and networking events for the ~ 120 conference goers.
I was able to spend a lot of time talking to the attendees, both at the Google booth and at the conference dinner, and was regularly surprised during those conversations as person after person told me that they'd be too afraid to even apply for a role at a company like Google, never mind actually going through the interview process.
I told everyone who said this the same thing, and I'm sharing it now in the hope that it might help change your mind if you're feeling the same way.
When you're interviewing at Google, we want you to do as well as you possibly can, so we do our best to make sure that that's possible. We don't ask trick questions, or look for ways to trip you up; our interviewers want to see you at your very best. The very worst that can happen is that we decide not to hire you (or you decide not to join us).

Life long learner: For internships, no. Interns need to still be studying. For full time roles it definitely helps. In its absence we'll be looking for signs on your CV that you've completed interesting projects, so be sure to call those out on your CV. There are more tips at http://www.google.com/intl/en/jobs/students/joining/.
Francisco: Check out http://www.google.com/intl/en/jobs/students/. I've just had a look, and I don't see any internships in Portugal at the moment. However, we're extremely happy to take interns *from* Portugal, and many of our interns have come from a different country to the one that they're interning in. So if you're interested in seeing what it's like to work outside Portugal I'd recommend applying for an internship in one of our offices -- it's an excellent way to combine working on interesting problems with seeing the world.
I am trying to decide where to go to college. My choices are University of Arizona or Northern Arizona University. U of A is our state's "flagship" research school offering many classes in computer science which is what my declared major is. While NAU offers many CS courses and is known to be a good school as well just not near as large of a school. I'm kinda of a quirky girl ( I mean I still like Pokemon and My little Pony - Friendship is magic) so fitting in at NAU would be a good fit for me. However, I've been blessed (or cursed) with being smart! Which in other words I may not due myself justice by not going to our state's more prestigious school.
Can you offer any advice for me as an incoming college freshman who would like an opportunity to work for one of the big computer companies?
Thank you
Briana.
